Please except my deepest sympathy on the passing of your father. Lou was a loyal friend and customer that I enjoyed and loved his friendship very much. Though I have not seen him since his retirement he still remained a great friend. I am deeply sadden to hear of his passing after his funeral today, it hurts so much to hear the news and not pay my proper respect to say good bye.
My God Bless him he was a good man.
Respectfully Yours
